Cryolipolysis

“Cryo Lipo” is a portmanteau of “cryogenic” and “lipolysis”. Generically, the process can also be known as “Fat Freezing”.

Cryo Lipo is a non-surgical procedure treatment used to destroy fat cells. Its principle relies on controlled cooling to near sub-zero temperatures for non-invasive localized reduction of fat deposits in order to reshape body contours.

Technology

The exposure to cooling is set so that it causes cell death of subcutaneous fat tissue without apparent damage to the overlying skin. The procedure is billed as a non-surgical alternative to liposuction.

Stubborn fat can are hard to get rid of, despite diet and exercise. The AW3® Cryolpolysis technology uses controlled freezing to target and break down the fat cells. In just a few weeks, these fat cells will naturally eliminate in the body for good.

How does it work?

The Cryo handle is applied to the treatment area targeted for fat loss. The handle uses advanced cooling technology to selectively target fat cells and freeze them. This procedure is known as apoptosis (controlled cell death) and is gradually eliminated from the body through the body’s natural waste disposal system.

When fat cells are subjected to being cooled below body temperature, the freezing causes the fat cells to die, followed by a local inflammatory response. When fat cells are exposed to extreme cold conditions, the body’s usual response is to restrict circulation to keep the core of the body at the correct temperature. Cryo Lipo makes use of a powerful vacuum which adds to the inflammatory response by drawing blood up to the surface layers of the skin, killing the cells.

FAQ

Is it painful and safe?

During the procedure, clients remain comfortable and can resume back to work immediately after. Cryo Lipo is completely safe and non-invasive. Its technology has been medically proven and there is no downtime following the treatment.

How many sessions are needed?

One session is sufficient for most people, for most areas. Cryo has the advantage of not usually requiring a course of treatment. Depending on the thickness of the fat and your personal goals, fat freezing may be repeated in the same area a second time, but is not always a necessary. If you choose that you would like a further reduction in the same area, preferable waiting time between sessions is approx 2 months. This is to give enough time to measure the effectiveness of the initial treatment. Clinical trial data has shown for most people, a 2nd treatment within about 2 months of the first does lead to greater reduction.

How is the fat eliminated from the body?

The fat will gradually leave the body through the lymphatic system, and this can take up to 30 days to for the body to remove. The results are not instantly seen, as the body has to work to remove the frozen fat cells.

How long does a session take?

A typical treatment takes 25 minutes maximum per area (Treatment time vary slightly depending on machine model/area). We advise the client to wait 20-30 days before they embark on a second session. This is to ensure they see the results from the first session and the body has time to remove the frozen fat cells.

How much fat is expected to be lost in 1 session?

20% – 30% reduction of body fat is the expected removal in one session.
